You are special.  I get error messages every three posts I try to make in average. Now I got another one. A pop-up screen saying I can't post because I'm logged out... Though I'm quite logged-in and a little refresh solved things...

^ I have to agree with the above two posts (Dean and Uwe), basically this makes my job as site monitor much harder and the trade off will be that I am going to be a lot less effective than in the past.
It used to be easy to watch the whole site, not so anymore.

probably I don't get it, but now we active members are always forced to log in in order to be up to date, it needs more time to check all the different threads whether anything is going on there - a change for the worse, the meaning of notifications as such is purposeless now ...

I agree - before I could just open the email to read the post and then go to the thread if I wanted to respond. Now I have to open the thread to see if there were any later posts. Definitely a down grade.
Surely it's just as easy to automatically unsubscribe members who haven't been active fro six months.

^ That's it. For report abuse report, I think it going to be instantaneous but for watch topic, it seem that (as it is now) we can't count only on email notifications.
According to this:
If you subscribe to a topic then email notifications are sent for the first time someone replies going on the last date of your last visit to the forum, another post notification for that topic will not be sent again till after you have re-visited the forum.
I think I understand now.
Example:
You post and subscribe/watch a topic. You will receive the first notifications after someone reply BUT you won't receive subsequent ones until you come back to the forum.
The goal is to prevent sleeping members/inactive ones to receive email notification indefinitely.
Now we need to have all people understand this to know if we keep that new system.

I'm not sure I follow all that. Basically in the past, by clicking watch topic I am able to keep an eye on troublesome threads as well as threads like forum abuse reporting etc.
I can be doing other things on the computer, but if someone reports forum abuse, or posts in a thread that is troublesome, I know right away.
